Chapter 922: Conscripting Young Men
The ruins of royal palaces from ancient times to the present fell from the sky like meteor showers, like a fallen dream, blooming dusty flowers on the gray earth.
The young man held the crying girl in his arms, his eyes swept over the scene in front of him, and there was only peace in his eyes...
The imperial power of the past has become like a dream. In this strange era, his road ahead is full of gray thorns.
A Qian cried for a long time and finally vented her fear. She looked at the young man with red eyes and asked cautiously:
"Brother Xiao Li...what's wrong with you?"
"I..." the young man paused for a moment, "I have embarked on a path."
"The road...is it the road of brothers and sisters like those supermen?" A Qian was a little confused.
"So be it."
"No wonder you've grown so much...and your appearance has changed a bit." A Qian looked at the young man's face. Although it was a little unfamiliar, she could still recognize Li Fu's appearance at a glance, which made her feel at ease.
"Brother Xiao Li, where should we go next?"
"Let's get out of here first."
"Well, okay."
Ah Qian stretched out her hand and pulled the young man's clothes as usual. The young man did not refuse. He stood up slowly and walked out of the ruins together...
Dong dong dong——
The remains of the palace fell around the two of them like meteor showers, but as if by magic, they all avoided their path. Only bursts of thunderous noises came from the surroundings, and dust obscured their vision.
As they moved forward, they dimly saw a golden imperial robe hanging on the side of the road, being hung by the barb of a beam, swaying silently in the wind...
It’s unknown which dynasty the royal robe came from, but it was well-preserved. The extremely luxurious materials and patterns symbolized the pinnacle of power in ancient times, making it difficult to look away after just one look.
Seeing this royal robe, the young man's eyes narrowed slightly...
[The emperor should remember that he has concerns in his heart, and if he shows weakness to the enemy, it is absolutely unacceptable]
A faint line of text appeared before his eyes.
The young man snorted coldly, waved his hand casually, and the weak words disappeared into the air.
He didn't show any nostalgia, and didn't even take another look at the imperial robe. He passed by him calmly and walked away step by step...
"Brother Xiao Li, the clothes you wore just now are so beautiful." A Qian couldn't help but say.
"No matter how beautiful it is, it is still an old dress." The young man said calmly, "Times have changed, and the old dress is no longer suitable... If I can make the old one, I can make a new one."
He glanced at his tattered coarse linen clothes and continued to walk forward. Their figures disappeared little by little into the dust.
"This time, I want to start over."
…
Jian Changsheng shook his groggy head and slowly got up from the ground.
"Damn...what's going on?"
"Are you awake?"
Sun Bumian sat on a stone nearby and yawned lazily, "How do you feel?"
"My head hurts... I seemed to have had a nightmare just now. I dreamed that I fell from a very high place and it hurt all over my body." Jian Changsheng groped his body with his hands and spoke uncertainly.
"..." Sun Bumian coughed lightly and skipped the topic, "Come and help when you wake up. This guy is a bit heavy."
Jian Changsheng followed Sun Buyimian's hand and saw that Jiang Xiaohua was like a green onion planted upside down, with her head and half of her body inserted into the ground, leaving her two legs alone standing straight on the ground of the gray world.
Jiang Xiaohua also remained silent and motionless, not even knowing whether she was dead or alive.
Jian Changsheng:......
In desperation, Jian Changsheng and Sun Bumian could only pull one leg each, pull it up from the ground little by little, and then throw it heavily to the ground like a sandbag.
Panting, Sun Bumian turned around and saw Jiang Xiaohua's eyes blinking slightly, looking at them soberly.
"..." Sun Bumian was speechless, "Why don't you move when you're awake?"
Jiang Xiaohua was silent for a long time and replied dully:
"The ground is quite comfortable."
"..."
The corners of Jian Changsheng and Sun Buyimian's mouths twitched slightly, trying not to push this guy back into the ground. At this moment, a figure wearing a red opera robe stepped on the clouds and slowly fell from the sky.
"Hey, where is your imperial robe?" Sun Bumian asked in confusion.
"The ancient treasure is gone, and the royal robe is just for decoration. I threw it away because it was too hot."
Chen Ling glanced at the three of them, paused for a moment on Jiang Xiaohua, seemed to remember something, gave Jian Changsheng and Sun Bumian a look, and walked aside silently.
Jian Changsheng and Sun Bumian looked at each other and followed immediately.
"What's wrong?"
"What are you going to do with that Jiang Xiaohua?" Chen Ling said in a deep voice.
Hearing these words, Jian Changsheng was shocked and spoke quickly,
"Hongxin, are you going to kill someone and silence him? Isn't it appropriate... Although he is indeed of no use value now, at least he saved our lives."
Chen Ling looked at him strangely, "When did I say I was going to silence myself...am I that cruel?"
Jian Changsheng nodded like garlic.
"..." Chen Ling was too lazy to talk nonsense to him, "Jiang Xiaohua has seen our past, and the identity of our Twilight Society has probably been exposed. If we don't kill people and silence them, we have two choices now.
Or, let Senior Byakuya come and steal his memories and let him go;
Or, drag him into the Twilight Society and let him get on the same pirate ship as us. "
"This is the first time I've heard someone use 'pirate ship' to describe themselves..." Sun Bumian shrugged, "But there seems to be nothing wrong with him."
"Can he agree to dragging him into the Twilight Club?" Jian Changsheng weighed it carefully, "I don't think he is willing to take risks outside by licking blood..."
Chen Ling snorted coldly,
"We have three sixes, and there is a queen of hearts here. He has to be willing to carry it away today if he doesn't want to!"
"good!"
After Chen Ling gave the order, the three of them set off directly, rushing to Jiang Xiaohua's side aggressively, looking at him with malicious eyes.
Jiang Xiaohua, who was lying peacefully on the ground, was stunned for a moment, and a bad premonition arose in her heart...
He rarely spoke proactively:
"You...what do you want to do?"
"Stop talking nonsense and come with us!" Jian Changsheng said domineeringly.
The three of them picked up Jiang Xiaohua without any explanation, Chen Ling carried her shoulders, Jian Changsheng and Sun Bumian carried their legs on the left and right, like a team snatching the bride's sedan, and ran in the direction of Bai Ye!
At this moment, Bai Ye was searching carefully for something in the ruins, his brows furrowing more and more...
"Strange, where have you gone..."
He muttered for a while, and suddenly seemed to notice something. He suddenly raised his head and looked into the distance, and saw Chen Ling and three others running here quickly with Jiang Xiaohua on their shoulders!
Bai Ye looked at this scene in confusion and said incredulously:
"You...what are you doing?"
"Senior Bai Ye." Chen Ling replied calmly, "We have captured a strong man for the Dusk Society."
Jiang Xiaohua's expression gradually changed from confusion and fear to dullness as she was carried on top. Then she seemed to have lost all her strength and means, looking up at the sky resentfully.
Bai Ye:...?
